yeah, they're pretty hot

Slick wheels man they will look good, and the perfect size too. I don't belive you can go to much wider specially if your car is lowered without rubbing.

Now i just need some really cheap tires. i have seen the Nankans NSI's and they seem pretty good for onle $38 a tire! Will an H Speed rating be ok?

what color is your car?

 

[lucid15]

car is in avatar now.

 

[VergeTSi]

have you looked into bronze rims? i think they look good on dark colors, also you can go wider than 17x7

 

[lucid15]

I thought 17x7 was the best wheel size for DSMs?

DO NOT, i repeat DO NOT get nankang, they are complete garbage. I had them myself.... get some fierce tires, they are good, i have them on my new tires. You should be able to get em at a decent price mine on 17s were only 75 a piece? IF you no anyone at a tire shop they might be able to sell you them for cheaper.

 

[VergeTSi]

my old set of wheels were 17x7.5 and they fit nicely with no issues at all. i don't think there's a best fit, it depends on the offset and what size tires you want to run.

 

[viperlp01]

17x8 is the widest... evos run 18x9s ... With suspension i have seen 8.5

Dont knock Nankang. They are actually a good tire for the price. Not to mention they out perform alot of pricier tires. We run nankangs NS2's on 18's on our 12 sec GTO. I have nothing bad to say about Nankang.

Don't care much for the 17x7 with multi- 10 holes and higher 42 offset.

2g's look so much better with a 17x8 wheel.

 

[VergeTSi]

^^^ yes sir, my evo ix wheels fit so much nicer

 

[lucid15]

anyone know of any 17x8 wheels that i can get for $400 for the set?

 

[Backinajiffy12]

Go to your local Discount tire...if yoiu have them in oregon and get the drag DR-9 same wheel a lot cheeper.
